I still need to confirm (haven't seen the cooler) whether the shelves are solid. It is unlikely, but again, possible. If the shelves are solid will heads at the topmost level be enough? Or will this space with solid shelves be treated differently?

Life Safety Department Head -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of A.P.Silva Sent: Thursday, April 23, 2009 12:14 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Walk-in cooler Generally the industry practice (from what I know) is to provide sprinklers in walk-in coolers and freezers. The cooler I am looking at is a beer cooler approx. 30 feet long, 10 feet deep and 7 feet high. It is full with shelves, and no one could "walk-in". Would it have to be sprinklered? Anyone has come across a similar situation or have any opinions?
